A video Ammon made for his Water Erosion project at school. He did a good job, I think!

Day camp fun

Friday night George Washington spoke along with three others about freedom and the boys sang patriotic songs they have been learning all month long. The camp theme is Star Spangled. Today the boys went to civil war camp and had some fun with archery. They cooked banana smores, played marbles, and made string art.

Good food, FHE, & Rydon walking

I LOVE SELF-FEEDING! Smooshed banana, tilapia bits, and cottage cheese. A win all around! He did SO GOOD! In all he ate about 2T cottage cheese,  1/4 tilapia filet, and half a small banana.
Our hodge podge FHE was painting matching "neers," watching Cinderella, and eating ice cream sandwiches.
Rydon has been trying to walk a ton today.  He goes about 3-4 feet before sitting down, but then he gets up and tries again. It's awesome!

Trip to CA for cleft surgery on March 25th

Cleft surgery got cancelled due to a cough that started five hours before seeing the anesthesiologist at Shriners. There is a risk of respiratory complications because of all the swelling after surgery, so the Dr. wanted us to cancel. We decided to go see the LDS temple and the Santa Monica Pier after the Dr. visit because we have always wanted to go see both those places. Traffic was SO BAD! It took us 1.5 hours to drive the 37 miles from the hospital to the temple and 2.5 hours to drive almost that far again to our friends house in Santa Clarita. It was an extremely disappointing day, but we had some fun in spite of it. A fun night having dinner and catching up with the Jones family...who we haven't seen in about 9 years, was really nice. I love having good friends!!!

 The temple is HUGE!!





 The Los Angeles Temple is the white stick right behind the van.
Jones' house in Santa Clarita. He LOVED petting their fluffy cat.
